MACUSHIELD®
What is MacuShield®?
In 2006, MacuShield® began as a single product, MacuShield® Original, a dietary supplement derived from the marigold flower (Tagetes Erecta) that combines the three macular carotenoids: Lutein, Meso-zeaxanthin, and Zeaxanthin.
We get these three nutrients exclusively from our diet, the Lutein and Zeaxanthin coming from dark green leafy vegetables and brightly coloured fruits, and the Meso-zeaxanthin coming from some types of fish and seafood. Since its launch, the range of products has increased, but they all still revolve around this core formula.
Which MacuShield® product is right for you?
MacuShield® Original and MacuShield® Gold both contain the three macular carotenoids. The MacuShield® Gold capsule also contains a blend of highdose vitamin C, vitamin E, Zinc and Copper.
Our most recent addition to the range is MacuShield® Original Chewable, which provides a MacuShield® Original Formula + vitamin B2 and is suitable for vegetarians. This offers the benefits of MacuShield® Original but in a chewable tablet which is perfect if you struggle to swallow capsules or tablets.
